Quotations regarding 'Choice'

Choose a letter: 
Great deeds give choice of many tales. Choose a slight tale, enrich it large, and then let wise men listen.
Pindar, Greek Poet
Francisco Garcia could have been a high draft choice last year, probably in the 20s. He's the best wing player I've ever coached. But he's done it the right way. He knew he had to work on his body to become a good pro. When he goes into the pros, he'll be physically ready.
Rick Pitino, American Athlete (1952-  )
I was offered a choice of a flat salary up front or a percentage of the film's future earnings. I took the up front money. Nobody could have figured what Halloween would ultimately become.
Donald Pleasence, English Actor (1919-1995)
The first thing to make clear is that scientists, freely making their own choice of problems and pursuing them in the light of their own personal judgment, are in fact co-operating as members of a closely knit organization.
Michael Polanyi, Hungarian Scientist (1891-1976)
The lanes and streets of the city being set out, the choice of sites for the convenience and use of the state remains to be decided on; for sacred edifices, for the forum, and for other public buildings.
Marcus V. Pollio, -
In setting out the walls of a city the choice of a healthy situation is of the first importance: it should be on high ground, neither subject to fogs nor rains; its aspects should be neither violently hot nor intensely cold, but temperate in both respects.
Marcus V. Pollio, -
Strategy is about making choices, trade-offs; it's about deliberately choosing to be different.
Michael Porter, American Educator
The comparison to the old world is something to get excited about. We have the potential for more choice and innovation, and a different regulatory environment that doesn't place as much weight on economic regulations of terms and conditions.
Michael K. Powell, American Politician (1963-  )
The choice is not normally between the north and south. It might be between Britain and Europe.
John Prescott, British Politician (1938-  )
I write because I write - as anyone in the arts does. You're a painter because you feel you have no choice but to paint. You're a writer because this is what you do.
Richard Price, American Writer (1949-  )
The democratic choice Russian people made in the early 90's is final.
Vladimir Putin, Russian Statesman (1952-  )
I think the American people should express their preferences, and we'll accept their choice.
Vladimir Putin, Russian Statesman (1952-  )
We believe that the European Union is facing a truly historic choice.
Jean-Pierre Raffarin, French Politician (1948-  )
Every man builds his world in his own image. He has the power to choose, but no power to escape the necessity of choice.
Ayn Rand, Russian Writer (1905-1982)
Meanwhile, our young men and women whose economic circumstances make military service a viable career choice are dying bravely in a war with no end in sight.
Charles Rangel, American Politician (1930-  )
There's always something to suggest that you'll never be who you wanted to be. Your choice is to take it or keep on moving.
Phylicia Rashad, American Actress (1948-  )
The Christian faith can never be separated from the soil of sacred events, from the choice made by God, who wanted to speak to us, to become man, to die and rise again, in a particular place and at a particular time.
Joseph Ratzinger, German Clergyman (1927-  )
In every aspect of life, including the economic dimension, we are always challenged to do the right thing. In many cases in the market system, which allows a great deal of latitude for human choice, people can get carried away to excess.
Lee R. Raymond, American Businessman (1938-  )
What we have found in this country, and maybe we're more aware of it now, is one problem that we've had, even in the best of times, and that is the people who are sleeping on the grates, the homeless, you might say, by choice.
Ronald Reagan, American President (1911-2004)
The truth is often terrifying, which I think is one of the motifs of Larry and Andrew's cinema. The cost of knowledge is an important theme. In the second and third films, they explore the consequences of Neo's choice to know the truth. It's a beautiful, beautiful story.
Keanu Reeves, Canadian Actor (1964-  )
